Consistent Progression Throughout the 5K Eden demonstrated a steady pace in the 2025 Boulderthon 5K, finishing with an overall time of 34:18 and an average pace of 11:03 minutes per mile. Notably, Eden's performance placed her 40th in the F20-24 division, and she maintained a solid position, ending 316th out of 784 in the female category and 693rd out of 1972 overall. Eden's split times indicate an increase in elapsed time with each mile, starting with a strong first mile at 10:28, followed by 11:01 in the second mile, and finishing the third mile in 11:43. A focus on maintaining or slightly reducing the pace in the latter stages can enhance overall time and standings. Continued consistent efforts could contribute to future improvements in division and gender placement.
